No, he wasn't.
You were supposed to to figure that out.
He didn't start out a good person who turned bad. He was always wicked, but too cowardly to let it out.
They fucking hammered that theme to death at the end of the show. He tells Skyler in the last episode, "I did it for me. I liked it."
Survivalist vs. Moralist.
People say they'd "do anything" to provide for the family, but few would actually follow through. That man was a hero, until he went too far.

No princess. This isn't a Disney movie.
They beat this horse to death. Getting cancer was Walt coming out of his shell.
You could argue he wasn't born evil, but the Walt that was killing everyone within ten miles of him by the end of the show goes back at least as far as his roommate stealing his girlfriend and riding off into the sunset with her to make millions on the company Walt started.
That shit was festering inside him for 20+ years, but he never let it out for the same reason that he let his roommate have his girl and his company, he was a coward. Getting cancer was what got him to stop being a colossal pussy and let his freak flag fly.
Heisenberg was there long before we met Walt.

That whole scene in the last ep with pete and badger shining laser pointers was so gay. Walt's plot was retarded too. Too many things could go wrong with that. If he wanted to take them all out, he should have put a bomb in that car. He was a goner anyway. Fucking ridiculous. Skylar and make a wish boy should have been killed by those nazis. Would have made for a greater ending. Marie should have also faced Walt's wrath. Jesse was a little bitch too and he shouldn't have made it out. They did the right thing taking out his boring ass wife. Ultimately, Gilligan wanted to please the crowd, that's why we got the ending we did.

Walter was never the protagonist. That was the whole point of his character's slow reveal. He didn't change; he just let it out.
There really were no main protagonist. The closest you will get to such a thing are Hank, the kids, etc.

It really is a shame that out of all the sexual deviants in Hollywood, Vince Gilligan wasn't accused of something. Even if the allegations were false, it might have stopped Breaking Bad from getting made which would be a net win for society. The guy looks like a total hipster faggot too with his handlebar mustache. He probably gets off on having three hundred pound black women using his chest as a bowel movement dumping ground. I'm sure he's a nice guy, but I really do not care for his work.

“President Trump is not the person who I wanted to be in that office, and I’ve been very open about that," Cranston said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter on Monday. "That being said, he is the president.
“If he fails, the country is in jeopardy. It would be egotistical for anyone to say, ‘I hope he fails,’” Cranston said. “To that person I would say, f--- you. Why would you want that? So you can be right?”

Turns out the squatch in Harry and the Hendersons groped some chicks too. I could have told them those creatures are scumbags.

Linda Lovelace was also involved in golden shower porn and masturbating dogs. I guess I can't take my kids to see deepthroat now because she sets a poor example for family values. WTF hollywood?

Looked back at the synopsis. Ok, I'll give you up until mid Season 2, when he lets Jane die in front of him.
Up until that point, he's a goddamn hero. I don't care what you think.

Curious where you would 'take your kids to see' a 40 year old porn movie
